Help! Quick response appreciated!
I'm getting a flashing check engine light that activates only when I rev the engine very high. It comes on, flashing, but then goes away if I drive normally. Doesn't come on if I shift below 6,000 rpm.
Car is an '04 with no mods other than a K&N drop-in. I also run a little Yamalube semi-synthetic pre-mix (4 oz per tank). I'm hoping to compete in the Packwood NT tomorrow, and am pulling my hair out as this just started happening today. Called a dealer and they can't see the car this afternoon.
Has anybody had this happen?
George

Plugs are fairly new, but they still could be problematic, I suppose. I'll check them.
Another symptom - I could swear the car is running just a little rough.
As for the coils, they are original (16,000 miles). Can you provide a link that describes how to check them?
Thanks for the help.

Zoom44, you are the man!
Pulled out the top plug on the left, and it looked fine. As I was re-installing it, I noticed that the top plug on the right wasn't connected to it's lead. "That sure is odd," I thought to myself.
Note to self: Electrons have to reach the plug...
